<h3>Joining the GEF Project</h3>

<p>Joining the GEF project is easy: just send email to <a
href="mailto:dev&#064;gef.tigris.org">dev&#064;gef.tigris.org</a> to
discuss the tasks you are interested in doing.  Or, check the <a
href="http://gef.tigris.org/issues/reports.cgi?state=Open+issues&containing=&type=case-insensitive+substring&x=Milestone&y=Priority">list
of open issues</a>.</p>

<p>Once we work out a task, it will be added to the issue tracker or
your name will be added to an existing issue. When you complete the
task it will be added to the next release of GEF. </p>

<p>The way most people contribute changes is to email a "patch" to the
developers' mailing list.  When the GEF committers see your
contribibution, they will review it and integrate it into the
source code repository.  If you make enough contributions, you can
become a committer yourself.</p>
